Yes, I heard that story when I was a slip renter in that noted establishment. Legend has it that it was a high end car......a Mercedes perhaps, and the owner had been told several times not to park there because it created a blockage.

Well, the story went that the car was picked up with the fork truck and placed in one of the racks. It was also said that the owner of the car never blocked anyone again.

As far as credibility goes, I know the man and I believe he has the temperment to do it. I have also watched him pilot a fork truck and I would bet he could build a house of cards with that truck and never knock anything down.

That is one of the stories that makes Winni great.
